High thyroid hormone link to low estrogen

Hi all, does anyone know if going through an early menopause which is causing estrogen levels to fall create a higher blood concentration of thyroid hormone levels. Please include links, no guessing please.

Also after a few months on thyroid lowering drugs, folic acid levels have dropped below range and liver function test shows high liver enzymes . Any clues what is going on here.

Thanks in advance.
